Oncol Rep 33: [Related article:] 2681-2688, 2015; DOI: 10.3892/or.2015.3897 After the publication of the article, it has been brought to the authors' attention by an interested reader that we had made an error regarding the colon cancer cell line in the manuscript. The error relates to Materials and methods, as well as Results, the colon cancer cell line in the Transwell migration assay and Flow cytometric detection of CXCR4 expression is HCT-116 rather than SW620. Accordingly, the correct legends in Figs. 3 and 6 in the paper are HCT-116 cells. This error does not affect the overall conclusions reported in the present study. We sincerely apologize for this mistake, and thank the reader of our article who drew this matter to our attention. Furthermore, we regret any inconvenience this error may have caused.
